Recently a traffic exchange blog asked their users if they built lists. I find this answer enlightening as it seems to hit a nerve.

"Hi
Wow another post cool, I do have a list 450 on my list,but not one is a buyer,so i have not made any thing from them,My downline at Maxtrafficpro is where i make some money about 15.00 every 2-3 months,and that is after 4 years of work and over 800.00 in fees from traffic exchanges,why am i telling you this,people think if they build a list/downline that they will make money,but that is not true some might,but most will not,you are going to spend more than you make."

Now if you look at this reponse it paints a very different picture:

"I have a list of about 12k people that I’ve built up over the course of 4 years of hard marketing. I’ve made a ton from my list however the key again just isn’t building one its knowing how to treat it and maintain it."

I think the real message to take away from this is that yes you can earn money from traffic exchanges but it takes a lot of time and a lot of work.

Traffic exchanges are funny, With so many out there and so many coming and going its hard to know where to place your chips. You can make money with traffic exchanges in fact its my life's earnings for the most part right now. But you have to go about it the right way. Traffic exchanges will honestly only get you about 1 to 2 percent of the worlds total population that is online to make some money. You need to take up other avenues of making cash and building your list.List building once you do it is something you need to keep up with. The people on your list need to get to know you and should be expecting a great email from you about once a week with information they want and need. Otherwise your going to get many dead leads as they turn into old email accounts they no longer use.Hope this information helps and wish you all the best

Great information about the traffic exchanges ... they do take time and work... I find it more practical to choose one or two you like and work it, instead of signing up for 100 of them and getting burned out quick!If you have time check me out herethink you may be interested if you do any social networking
